What about network shares? Maybe we need
GList *gnome_vfs_volume_monitor_get_volumes_for_uri
(GnomeVFSVolumeMonitor *volume_monitor,
const char *uri);
or
GnomeVFSVolume* gnome_vfs_volume_monitor_get_volume_for_uri
(GnomeVFSVolumeMonitor *volume_monitor,
const char *uri);
depending on whether multiple volumes for the same URI are possible.

It is at least more discoverable than the unmount keybinding for
single-button mouse users (i.e. most G3/G4 users), considering that we
don't unmount a volume when moving it to trash.
